LC Alert Mobile Application
As we continue to work effectively to provide the safest environment possible for our students, faculty and staff, LC Alert allows the college to communicate important information to our Laredo College community. In an emergency Laredo College will activate the system by sending telephone calls, emails and text messages simultaneously to the campus community. Your contact information is deemed private and will be used by the college for official notification or business purposes only.
In order to help you stay up to date in a crisis or critical event that may happen at either the Fort McIntosh Campus or the South Campus please download CampusShield.
Campus Shield connects you directly with campus police, while also providing convenience and helping you to save time. When the Emergency Button is pressed, LC Campus Police is directly notifed.
